Another fun list: Movies directed by a star in it

Here's another one of those lists I like so much: the directed-by-star list on IMDb.

This list is obviously terribly incomplete. Notice that Annie Hall is the only Woody Allen film that appears, for instance.

Not true! It also lists Manhattan, at least. :)

But yeah, I agree it's horribly incomplete. This is why Wikis are better!

Looking at this list, Cable Guy jumped out, but the director is Ben Stiller. I haven't seen it, but I certainly didn't think of it as starring him so much as Jim Carrey. This made me look at Jim Carrey. His only writing credit is Ace Ventura. I thought maybe this was a Rocky-Stallone like story, but no, it seems like the real script was by someone else and he just helped out. (Makes sense, he was a comic, he could probably add enough lines to warrant a WGA credit.) What's odd is that he doesn't seem to have done that since then. Does he just not want to take credit? I wonder.
